declinati0n, says:

4 Boston sea captains wife was one day
reading a letter written to her husband by
a trader on the coast Of Africa, telling him
what articles TO bring on his next voyage
to That country. After naming this, that
and the other thing which it woaId be well
to bring, the list concluded with,
Bring plenty ofrum.'
This is the Macedonian cry that comes TO
America from the c~onscicncelcss traders
who lnfesl the African coast. Bring
plenty IF rum Rum is in good demand.
Rum viii sell any time. Ram will have
anything which the poor ignorant natives
have. BRING plenty Of rum
How does America answer such requests
as this? She Is fully equal to the occasion.
4 single vessel sailing from the port Of
Boston has taken one hundred and thirty
one thousand gallons Of rum to Africa,
and reports have come OF ships carrying a
Single missionary and a hundred thousand
gallons If mm. What Will the harvest be.

dammation among the benightel heather f?
Surely this is = most solemn question, and
a question which merits the most careful
consideration.
We send ont ~missionarias to the heather,
but one cargo of ram will ruin more
heatheus in a year. than a missionary
could save in a lifetime. Is IT not high
time that something was done to stop this
Infamous business ? Does not the circuiu-
stances Of The case demand that a little
mission work be dol.e nearer home? i it
not high timc that civilized nations tie 4
milestone to the neck Of this Infamous
traffic. and sinl, III IN tile nefhermoat hell?
surely those who boast Of their righteous
ness and their civilization should take
zone measures 10 prevent this wholesale
poisoning which is going on before their
eyes. The whole business is wrong. and

shall he dome with this dire and dreadful
traffic, and heatiicn nations shall no more
